On my last post I had given a sneak peek at the colours I choose for our July ornament, and here it is all finished. The stocking was actually designed by Cynthia Thomas for this year's ornament collection by Rainbow Gallery.
There are 12 in the series, and although we're just starting in July, we will still manage to finish 6 in time for Christmas.
I loved this one for July, because the Ray stitches, with some added metallic and beads remind me of fireworks. And seeing that we celebrate both Canada Day and Independence Day this month, I felt it was an appropriate selection.

We have a limited number of kits, and the fibre and bead pack is $9.95. These stockings are a quick stitch for canvas stitchers of all levels. Click here if you would like to order the kit.

Here are the colours for the August stocking. August being prime vacation month with dreams of spending time up north In the woods by water, the colour selection should be of no surprise.
